Tiny Marketing: Marketing and Sales Systems for Independent Consultants

Send us a textFeeling overwhelmed by marketing advice that seems impossible to implement alongside your client work? You're not alone. As independent consultants, we're expected to be experts in our field while somehow finding time to create daily content, maintain multiple platforms, and follow generic marketing advice that wasn't designed for our unique challenges.The truth is startlingly simple: most marketing strategies weren't built for independent consultants like us. They assume you have a dedicated marketing team, endless hours for content creation, and the ability to follow one-size-fits-all formulas. But your consulting business is unique—your strengths, your client experience, your bandwidth—and your marketing strategy should reflect that reality.That's why I've developed the Strategic Spark session within the Tiny Marketing Club. This one-to-one strategy session maps out a simple, repeatable marketing and sales system customized specifically for your consulting business. We look at your natural strengths, your ideal clients, and your limited time to create a sustainable approach that generates leads even while you're focused on delivering client work. The best part? These systems work on autopilot—I was shocked when my CFO report showed impressive revenue that came in so effortlessly I barely noticed it happening.After five years as an independent consultant, I've experienced firsthand the feast-or-famine cycle that happens when client work takes precedence over marketing. The Strategic Spark session breaks this cycle by giving you a clear, actionable plan that fits seamlessly into your business. Stop wasting time on marketing tactics that don't work for your unique situation.
